Busy crowds, lonely hearts, broken dreams <br />Shopping for yesterday. <br />Visiting the shared moments, <br />In all the familiar places <br />When shopping for yesterday. <br /> <br />We are all prisoners of the past <br />When shopping for yesterday <br />Knee deep in our loneliness <br />Surrounded by the crowd <br />We’re shopping for yesterday. <br /> <br />Pictures and memories <br />Half-forgotten words <br />Time slipping away <br />From the windmills of my mind <br />When shopping for yesterday.<br /><br />Adrian Wait<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/shopping-for-yesterday/
